Encumbrance
| ||||||||
Every item in the game has a weight. When the player puts items in their backpack or equips them their encumbrance increases. Newly respawned soldiers are 16% encumbered.
Encumbrance directly affects the player's rate of decrease in Stamina when walking or running, as well as their movement speed.
Encumbrance levels[edit | edit source]
Encumbrance is displayed in game as a percentage of a set maximum encumbrance. The number can be seen in the inventory UI screen.
| HUD Icon | Encumbrance | Effects |
|---|---|---|
| None | 0% - 49% | The player can move and sprint at regular speed. |
|
50% - 99% | The player will move slower and spend more stamina when sprinting. |
|
100% and more | The player will move very slowly, spend a lot of stamina when sprinting, and even spend stamina when walking. |
As encumbrance rises over 100%, the player will use more and more stamina for running, and even walking. The UI will still show 100% encumbrance.
